The Bad Ups


 

Philadelphia's The Bad Ups will release their upcoming LP, 'Life of Sin' on September 27 via Jump Start Records.

Stream the new lyric video for "Ego Trip" here: https://youtu.be/8Rftu45M_zY

Stream on Soundcloud: https://on.soundcloud.com/BsmNX6daJuKDoNH68

Frontman Travis McKayle says,"'Ego Trip' is about finding your place in the world while staying true to yourself."

Pre-order the album here: https://thebadups.bandcamp.com/album/life-of-sin

The four-piece punk band draws heavy inspiration from the Epitaph and Fat Wreck bands of the 90s and early 2000s, while also embracing the rhythms of traditional ska and reggae. Channeling the spirit of Bad Brains, they blend these genres into a unique sound.

McKayle, who is of Jamaican descent, named the band The Bad Ups after the Caribbean patois term “baddup”—which means to treat someone poorly or violently. This name reflects their intense musical style and their ability to connect with the term's cultural roots.

Since their formation in 2018, The Bad Ups have built a dedicated following and shared the stage with prominent acts like Face to Face, The Bouncing Souls, The Adicts, and Street Dogs. Their versatile sound appeals to various punk subcultures, from ska to oi, making them a versatile addition to many lineups.

The Bad Ups are gearing up for a national and international tour to support their debut LP, “Life of Sin.”

Upcoming Shows:

September 28- Landsdale, PA (record release show) @ Round Guys

October 24- Philadelphia, PA @ The Fire

Hump Day & Chill

Reunited
Winona Ryder & Michael Keaton

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! Yeah that's the ticket...as much as I loathe legacy sequels (and trust me I do!) I am going to give a Hump Day & Chill to the one for Bettlejuice.

I happened upon the original a few months ago and had forgotten how utterly unique and fun it was. Since I've heard the sequel captures the magic of the first, well I guess this will be an exception to my legacy sequel rule, I will see it instead of avoid it.

"Yes" it's 100% true I steer clear of this kind of nonsense (that also includes Marvel Moives) but if this even succeeds in capturing half of the magic of the original then I'mall in!!!

So let's Hump Day & Chill to saying Beetlejuice three times this weekend. 

You know you want to...

Breakfast At Tiffany's


“Breakfast at Tiffany’s” stands as a beloved classic for many reasons. It captured the excitement and glamour of early 1960's New York City chic, made an icon of actress Audrey Hepburn, influenced popular culture and fashion, and contains an immortal theme song. A giant commercial success, it garnered five Academy Award nominations and took home two statues. When I first saw it as a boy, I could sense it was a noteworthy film and even got emotional at the end, though I didn’t exactly know why. I watched it again, and though I liked it, felt I didn’t understand it and brushed it off as one of those classics that just didn’t speak to me. Cut to today, when I rewatched it after years to prepare for this post and had a completely different experience." - Jay Jacobson, Jay's Classic Movie Blog
